The minimum income for family visas rose by more than £10,000 to £29,000 from April.

A legal challenge is being brought against the Government for hiking the minimum income for family visas by thousands of pounds.

RFUK said the legal challenge will question whether there was a sound legal basis for the decision to increase the minimum income requirement and whether the decision was taken in line with advice. “We hope that through the legal case, ministers will pursue a better, more humane family migration policy. One that doesn’t discriminate based on one’s income and instead recognises the value of bi-national couples and families not just for the economy but for our society as a whole.”
